Tonight I will try to fall in love
Send my heart to pieces and piece it back together again
When did the pretty girls grow so young
Hello there, I'd like to get my heart broken tonight.
Sure I'll go ahead and give it a try
With my sharp little tongue
With your sharp little tongue
And my black-hole eyes
And your black-hole eyes
Then you leave me here to the blackness
The night out side
The blinking neon sign with 'thank you' one the back side
Stutters and stammers out
Like the words from my mouth
The words from my mouth
The... ah... words... oh no...
My heart wont be broken
Its igneous gabbro-granite with feldspar streaks
The pink stripes that make me weak
Where the black and white side meet
Like the checker board table in the corner
Where they attacked with such fury that the opposing army fled
Leaving the field strewn with their dead.
Where your kings took my queens
Amongst other things
like it was possible without shadowed intrigue.
You intrigued me to say the least
Before the days of two faced deceit
And failure
I fail
Your expectations
With my constant reliance
one inconsistent silence
and though it took me years to understand
It all is coming clear
How ethereal girls
With oceans for eyes
Love to play tricks with my mind.
